About Me:

Equality Now was founded in 1992 with the mission of using legal advocacy to protect and promote the human rights of women and girls. For more than 25 years, we have been using the law to create a just world for women and girls.
By directing global public and media attention on individual cases of abuse—while also advocating with policymakers and using international human rights law— our international network of lawyers, activists, and supporters bring change by holding governments responsible for enacting and enforcing laws and policies that end legal inequality, sex trafficking, sexual violence, and harmful practices such as child marriage and female genital mutilation.
